Fantasy Clock～Dream Ruler～

Liao is an uninhabited, cold barbecue restaurant, with only three people sitting at a table near the counter.

"After all, your dream maker used to be a member of the Dream Stealer. This may be a shortcut, so I want to use the Dark Knight as the current breakthrough."

Su Ruoyang, who temporarily put Lin Yu's matter behind her, explained her thoughts to Su Huilin seriously.

"This...is that so~"

Su Huilin moved her head lightly, and just as her eyes turned to the empty space on the right, a man in black armor immediately appeared in the empty space. He took off the black helmet respectfully, and his dark blue pupils Looking directly at Su Huilin, he bent down and stepped away from the table, bowing in respect.

"Excuse me, what is the order of the Demon Lord?"

"Don't... don't call me such a strange name casually!"

Su Huilin's cheeks were flushed instantly, the jet-black wings on her back drooped at a loss, and the horns on her head retracted.

"Understood. Then today...you also asked me to come out with you to train gymnastics with you?"

After hearing this, Lin Yu gave Su Huilin a strange look. He actually didn't know Su Huilin as a student, so he didn't know where to ask.

"You...you don't know how to find him as a training partner, do you?"

"Bad, that's about it."

Su Huilin scratched her cheek, and glanced away. Lin Yu and Su Ruoyang looked at each other, and said in unison:

"Is it not hurt?"

Lin Yu actually asked Su Huilin this question, but Su Ruoyang asked the same question to the Dark Knight.

As a result, the two people who were asked the same question showed a little embarrassment at the same time.

"oh……"

Su Ruoyang nodded his head meaningfully. He who had been forced into a corner and had no way to defend himself of course understood what was going on. Only Lin Yu was still out of the situation, and glanced at the three people in the situation strangely. .

"Okay! I'm looking for you this time, because I actually want to ask about some dream stealers."

＊＊＊

Dimly lit bar.

A thin man with a child's build turned the wine glass in his hand, and the ice cubes swirled along the glass wall, waiting for someone's echo.

At this time, the man beside him asked the King of Thieves who was spinning the cup sideways in a tone of asking for advice:

"One thing I've always been curious about. Where do you think people go after death?"

Thief Dream King met his gaze, raised his wine glass, and put the wine in the glass into his mouth in one go.

"If you're asking where those losers who have lost hope will go, I don't know, and I don't care. As for the dead who have strong obsessions and have sustenance in this world, they will be in places other than this world. Carve their imprint, and live in this imprint."

"Imprint?" The man squinted his eyes in confusion, and asked, "The imprint you are talking about...?"

"When a person is born in this world, it is inevitable to accumulate pleasant or unpleasant memories. These memories will form a dream. The so-called dream is an answer sheet of life, recording all the imprints traced in a person's life. "

Thief Dream King gently put down his wine glass, and raised the corners of his mouth bitterly. The bartender at the front desk walked over, filled up the wine, and signaled the guests to drink it slowly. The eyes of Thief Dream King moved to the ice cubes in the wine glass, which were gradually melting with the wine.

Even if it cannot be seen with the naked eye, the melting ice has left a mark of real existence.

The drink reflected his own face, he looked into his eyes in the water, but saw the smile hidden in his memory, which seemed to be able to dilute everything else. The ice suddenly trembled slightly and became smaller and smaller, shaking the Dream Thieves back from his memory.

Baitu Meiyi is a person who has a strong obsession with the present world. She will never lose hope in the present world, but she...

Pirate Dream King took a deep breath, and drank the wine in the glass again, a hot feeling rolled up in his throat.

"What about you? Did you leave a mark of existence, and continue to live in the mark?"

The men around him thought that the Dream Thief was asking him, thought about it for a long time, and shook his head.

"At least until now, I haven't fulfilled the conditions to leave a mark."

Thief King didn't respond to his voice, and the male didn't even know if he heard himself speak.

At this moment, the sound of copper bells came from the door of the bar.

A short-cut man walked into the bar, kept his gaze down, walked to the seat next to the King of Pirates of Dreams, and sat down without saying a word.

Even if a man wears a suit, he can't hide his strong muscles. He slightly raised his hand to the bartender, and the bartender skillfully poured a glass of red brand Volga, and brought it to the man in the suit, and then went elsewhere to wipe the glass wisely.

"My executioner, you don't look like a fish in water as usual, is it because the plan of "Inception" is not going well?"

"It's not."

The man in the suit had just moved the wine glass to his lips, but he stopped his movements because of the words of the King of Pirates of Dreams, and shook his head.

"Of the ten targets targeted in the initial screening, seven of the rulers have already been eliminated by us."

"What about the remaining three?"

"One is the ruler of clock No. 3. This person has a backhand, and we haven't found him at all. The other two are masters of clock No. 2. The girl among them has superb physical skills and is difficult to get close to." One, she escaped in the end. The other, fled to the territory of the Core Research Association.”

Such a result is indeed higher than expected. It also turns out that the dominators of clocks two and three are indeed difficult to deal with.

As for the core research association. The people from the Anonymous Virgin have warned the Thief of Dreams time and time again that it is best not to conflict with them at the moment. It is also a helpless move for the executioner to let the ruler go.

"If that's the case, then something else happened, right?"

The man in the suit unknowingly put down his wine glass, making such a noise that everyone couldn't help but look over. Even the bottom of the cup cracked due to his violent movements.

The bartender who was wiping the wine glass gave the man in the suit a helpless glance. This kind of thing was commonplace, so he simply said nothing.

"The results of two recent investigations have shown that the total number of dream robbers has decreased for no reason. We investigated the dreams of the missing and found that there were indeed traces of fighting. Moreover, we found traces of the Dark Knight in two of the dreams... …these are things that have happened in the last three days.”

Thief Dream King didn't overreact, his face was surprisingly calm, he glanced unhurriedly at the man who asked him about death just now.

"Do you have any idea?"

The man froze for a moment, he didn't expect the King of Pirates of Dreams to bring the topic to himself, and shook his head left and right.

The King of Pirates of Dreams seemed to expect that he would not guess the answer, he laughed hysterically a few times, and then looked directly into the man's eyes.

"Obviously, someone launched a full-scale counterattack against us. The most important thing is that the other party clearly wanted to steal the Dream Thief's dream! Interesting, really interesting. I have participated in so many domination wars, this This is the first time I have encountered such an interesting thing.”

Pirate Dream King read out this series of words according to the script, and his distorted expression suddenly became strangely flat. He turned his dull eyes and landed on the executioner beside him, suddenly a fierce smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said in a low tone:

"Unfortunately, this is the development I expected."

The executioner couldn't help but frowned, and his gaze immediately shifted to the Dream Thief King. The King of Pirates Dream maintained a ferocious smile on his face, and made eye contact with his executioner.

"So you actually know who's behind it?"

"Besides William Andres, do you think there are other candidates?"

Pirate Dream King looked very surprised, and asked him back, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and changed back to the original plain expression.

"Let's go. This time, they will definitely destroy their ruler clock to pieces."

＊＊＊

Once upon a time there was a ruler who controlled lucid dreaming.

He is dissatisfied with the status quo that he can only manipulate his own dream world. He wants to go to a more distant world, trying to find the key that can wake his son up.

Therefore, he expended a lot of energy to untie the shackles of the Dream Palace, allowing his subconscious and dreams to completely obey his orders.

After that, he was finally able to enter and leave the palace, and he could finally summon the World Gate at will, and go to the gap between dreams at his own will.

However, he didn't know that the dream maker guarded the ruler himself, not the dream of the ruler.

He did not know that wherever the Ruler went, the Dreamer must follow.

One day, he left his dream and participated in the domination war desperately, just to become the dominator of reality and fulfill his wife's long-cherished wish.

As a result, the Dream Thief's haze covered the skies of his dreams.

Faced with a powerful onslaught, the Dreamer has no strength to match the intruder. Finally, when he returned, the Dream Palace had been destroyed.

The dreamland fell into an endless period of collapse.

For a long time, he lost the right to dream and couldn't enter the gap between dreams.

The observers who control the war regard him as "out of the game".

Dream Thieves, stole his dreams, stole his hope of awakening his son, and stole his right to victory.

Without dreams, he experienced a series of abnormalities on the mental level, short-term loss of memory, shock of consciousness...and many other problems. He has cried and yelled, exposing his ugliness to the naked eye.

Later, the God of Fate, who is keen on pranks, gave him a chance that seemed to be a joke.

He didn't expect that his late wife left him the last place to stay, and he was saved by relying on her mark.

"William Andres, from now on, Mei Baitu's dream will be the dwelling place of your consciousness."

It seemed to hear a distant call from the other side. William waved away the smoke hovering nearby, kicked back from the clock and stood up.

A strange strong light came rapidly from the distance of the field of vision, and the sudden sense of danger brought by the absolute observation made William quickly wave his right hand.

"Right now!"

Xue Xue'er and Elus, who received the instructions from behind, stretched their hands forward at the same time, and the opened magic circle was reflected by the translucent white curtain wall, and the two magic circles immediately gathered together to form an arc-shaped solid shield, attacking from a distance The strong light instantly hit it with a posture of devouring everything.

The strange balance was only maintained for a few seconds, and the sound of the mirror cracking immediately broke the balance, and the rushing air current caused the two girls to instinctively raise their hands to resist. Although most of the solid shield formed by the magic circle was destroyed, it still stood firm as a rock.

Elus swung her staff to her feet, and the magic power supporting the shield suddenly drifted away.

The mist dissipated, William pulled the corners of his mouth jokingly, and met a pair of sharp eyes in front of him.

"As expected, you have come,—the King of Pirates of Dreams!"
